What style of dress is good for a reception?

Sherraine, on March 30, 2019 at 12:05 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 7

ive already picked out my dress for the ceremony. which is a beautiful tulle ball gown, but i wanted a second dress for the reception. what im looking for in a reception dress is

-something slender but not form fitting, flowy even

-comfy but stylish

- practical for our first dance , we'll be doing a waltz so i really dont want the bottom to drag on the floor but still long. id just hate to trip or something (ankle length?)

what style should i consider?

    ceremony dressWhat style of dress is good for a reception? 2

    well this is the dress for the ceremony :3 for the reception dress i wanted it to stil be white but something comfortable and easy to dance in, so possible something flowy. i dont like showing off my legs so nothing short but not floor length. i do still like straps or something off the shoulder.

    I’m still thinking about whether I want a second dress or not. The ones I am looking at are simple sheaths that aren’t too tight, so I can dance easily. I also have a tulle ball gow, which is strapless, so I’m thinking I may want something that has straps and doesn’t take up an entire zip code, lol.
